Here's a GIF I put together from images taken 10/26/2025.
97×20" grouped for 18 images/video frame. Each frame increments by 9 images.
Tracking only, dithering=3.
150P Quattro, Canon 60D, ISO 3200, AM5N, NINA.
A lot of manual frame processing, ASTAP star stacking then ephemeris comet stacking.
SIRIL Autostretch, Background Extract, and color calibration. GIMP Levels median stacking, RawTherapee stetch and denoise.
As usual, fighting the noise, especially with the comet below 10 degrees for the last half of the video.
Some ion tail knots can be seen moving over the, short, 32 minute capture.
